Richard Thompson piosenki

I've been gone so long, now ain't it a pity Bending my back in this hell-hole city Turning my ear from my friends and betters Up to my neck in unread letters And unwritten laws Where I come from feeling is a crime I thought I could take you in my own good ti...

I found a stray at my back door She was a hungry shivering sore Her dress was rags, her shoes were holes I found a stray at my back door I washed the dirt from off her face I tucked her clean into my bed But I could never wash away The voices calling in her h...

She said "Darling I'm in love with your mind. The way you care for me, it's so kind. Love to see you again, I wish I had more time". She was laughing as she brushed my cheek "Why don't you call me, angel, maybe next week Promise now, cross your heart and hope...

I ride in your slipstream I wear your reflection I echo your heartbeat In the wind You might say we're lovers You might say we're strangers You think you don't know me But you're wearing my ring Good road, bad road Just don't mean a thing Good dream, bad dream...

It was cruel of you to stand at my door and take my hand Like a drowning man I clung to my defenses And ten years is a time but your looks, love, it's a crime And I lost my tongue in the tangle of my senses And I never was to know that I'd come to miss you so...

I'm so tired of working every day Now the weekend's come I'm gonna throw my troubles away If you've got the cab fare, mister, you'll do all right I want to see the bright lights tonight Meet me at the station, don't be late I need to spend some money and it j...

I can't eat, I can't sleep Knowing that you're on Your midnight creep I can't jump. I can't jive Knowing that you want me Dead or alive There's no half way with you You see red, white and blue What holds your head on Could use another screw Come on,...

Oh trouble becomes you, it cuts you down to my size And you never were less than perfect in my eyes But I lost my way somehow For three hard winters I held it in, till now Oh now I can't help it, oh Jennie my love Oh Jennie my love Now you pin up your hair li...

Jerusalem on the Jukebox, they talk in tongues on CoronationStreet Heaven help the Pharisee whose halo has slipped down to hisfeet A thousand satellite comedians have died for your sins Jerusalem on the jukebox, little angels, beat your wings At poolside picn...

Jet plane in a rocking chair Roller coaster roll nowhere Deaf and dumb old dancing bear I'll change this heart of mine This time, this time Sea cruise in a diving bell Run a mile in a wishing well Soft soap and nothing to sell I'll change this heart of mine T...

When you're rocked on the ocean, rocked up and down, don't worry When you're spinning and turning round and around, don't worry You're just feeling sea-sick, you're just feeling weak Your mind is confused and you can't seem to speak It's just the motion, i...

If I cross your path again, Who knows where, Who knows when On some morning without number, On some highway without end Don't grasp my hand and say "Fate has brought you here today" Oh fate is only fooling with us, friend Keep your distance, oh keep your...

Let me rock you in my arms I'll hold you safe and small A refugee from the Seraphim In your rich girl rags and all Did your dreams die young Were they too hard won Did you reach too high and fall And there is no rest For the ones God blessed And he blessed y...

He was a species on the verge of extinction She was an Air New Zealand hostess They were mystically joined like Rawicz and Landauer Like Pinky and Perky, like Porgy and Bess Oh, he loved the pursuit and the romance But the details were more of a chore When th...

My oh my, but you do look the killer Never mind the duds just look at that hat All that green chartreuse on the waistcoat How do you come by something like that? Where did you get that little blue number? How do you make those rhinestones shine? Do you go on...

Somebody's walking, oh somebody's walking There on the grave of our love And somebody's kicking the dust and the ashes away Why don't they just let it die And fade and grow cold again Better our footsteps divide And our memory grow old again Oh long dead love...
